Have you ever met an incredible person while interviewing candidates for a job and thought to yourself… you’re not right for THIS position…but if I had a different role for you… I’d hire you on the spot!
Today, I’m asking the question: can, or should, we ever hire a stellar candidate even if we don’t have a position for them to fill?
In today’s episode, we discuss:
- What to do when you meet a qualified candidate that you don’t have a role for
- The perks of hiring quality talent year-round
- How hiring without a role can prevent capacity issues
- The importance of hiring for passion, purpose and proficiency
- Why hiring without a role is a gamble…here is what to look out for
Here are other resources I mention:
- When to Take a Chance on an Imperfect Job Candidate by Rebecca Knight
- Enduring The Recession by the Gravy Team
